Location
Description
Seoul’s metro is excellent, but some journeys simply call for a private car: travelling with elderly parents or small children, carrying luggage and shopping, running a full day of appointments across the city, or heading out to places the metro does not reach. TGROUP TRADE & TRAVEL provides private cars with chauffeurs across Korea on a daily basis, for families, groups of friends, corporate delegations and golf parties.
Vehicles and chauffeurs are arranged and supervised by TGROUP, with a Vietnamese-speaking coordinator on hand throughout, so guests never have to negotiate the journey in English or Korean.

Service areas
Seoul: all 25 districts, from Gangnam, Seocho, Jung-gu, Jongno, Mapo and Yongsan through to Songpa, Gangdong and Nowon.
Gyeonggi province: Gwacheon, Gwangmyeong, Gimpo, Bucheon, Seongnam, Anyang, Goyang, Gwangju and neighbouring cities – including popular day-trip destinations such as Everland, Nami Island and Petite France.
Destinations further afield are arranged by agreement, priced on distance and number of days.
Who this service is for
- Families travelling with elderly parents or young children – no station stairs, no risk of being separated at rush hour.
- Groups of 4 – 7 friends covering several places in a day, where the per-person cost is close to metro plus taxi fares.
- Corporate delegations with back-to-back meetings that need a car waiting between appointments.
- Golf parties – most Korean courses sit well outside the city, where a private vehicle is all but essential.
- Shoppers – somewhere to leave purchases instead of carrying them all day.
Our honest advice
If you are two young travellers staying within central Seoul with no luggage to speak of, the metro is faster and far cheaper than a private car – and we will tell you so. A chauffeured car earns its cost when you travel with elderly guests or small children, when you head out to Nami Island, Everland or Gangneung, when the weather turns bitter or snowy, and when the day’s itinerary spreads across the city. Two practical notes: Seoul rush hour is heavy, so leave room between appointments; and Korean chauffeurs generally speak basic English, so if your party needs to communicate at length, add an interpreter.
